Chapter 36: Preemptive Strike

East Palace!

Li Chengdao went home with his arms hanged, and the painful expression on his face disappeared after entering the door, replaced by a gloomy and dignified face.

Falling off the horseback was light and heavy, and King Liang Huai, who was favored by Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, fell from his horse and died, so that Jia Yi, who was a prince, blamed himself and died of depression.

Lee Seung-do was lucky.

At that time, the speed of the horse was not very fast, and Du Wei and Cheng Chumo struggled to kick the horse down, but it had the effect of slowing down, and Li Chengdao and the others fell to the ground with the horse.

It's just a dislocated arm, but when he saw Cheng Qian's broken leg and faint, he knew something was wrong.

Regardless of the reason, it is an indisputable fact that his mount broke his cousin's leg bone.

In order not to put himself in a disadvantageous situation, the clever Lee Seung-do immediately pretended to be seriously injured and quickly returned to the house.

But after all, it is only a small problem of dislocation, and it doesn't even need the help of a doctor, and it can be reset by itself if you find someone to help.

King An Lu's injury was a major event after all.

The crown prince Li Jiancheng, the crown princess Zheng Guanyin, and the king of Qi, Li Yuanji, who was a guest in the East Palace, were all alarmed.

"Chengdao, is the injury serious?"

The most nervous is Zheng Guanyin, the eldest son has died early, and if the second son has three long and two short, her situation is unimaginable.

"Mother doesn't have to worry, don't worry."

Li Chengdao shook his head and turned to look at Li Jiancheng: "Father, there may be trouble." ”

"What's wrong?"

Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, is thirty years old, not confused, mature and steady, and has the demeanor of a prince.

"My mount injured Cheng Qian."

Li Chengdao briefly recounted the matter, but he did not omit any key details, nor did he hide them.

It doesn't matter if you do something wrong, it's unforgivable to conceal it if it leads to a bigger mistake.

Now that the matter is big, it is not only his business, but also the entire East Palace, and a little scolding is not important.

Li Jiancheng was very calm, did not scold, but asked, "Is Cheng Qian seriously injured?" ”

"The leg bone is broken, and the personnel are unconscious......"

Li Jiancheng frowned suddenly, and exchanged glances with his fourth brother Li Yuanji beside him, secretly feeling that something was wrong.

It has long been an open secret that the brothers have lost harmony, and they have clashed countless times with open guns and hidden arrows, but on the surface, they still have to pretend to be brothers, friends and brothers.

I can't make my father sad, and I can't let the world see jokes.

It is also to avoid being stained by the prince himself, who will be criticized by history and future generations in the future.

How so?

It's a bit like I want to be a bitch and set up an archway.

Now his son has trampled on the leg of Li Shimin's eldest son......

This matter is in trouble, and the situation is unfavorable to the East Palace.

There will definitely be blame from his father Li Yuan, and Li Chengdao, the second son of Li Chengdao, who has high hopes, is likely to be infamous and harshly reprimanded.

Moreover, it will greatly stimulate Li Shimin.

The current situation is favorable to Li Jiancheng, after all, he is orthodox and occupies the righteousness in terms of the elders and youngsters.

Slowly trying to figure it out, he can always gradually cut off the wings of the second brother, and he can control the overall situation.

The current situation is relatively stable, and it is a great opportunity to suppress Li Shimin, and if this incident causes a strong backlash from the Tiance Mansion, the turmoil is destined to be unavoidable.

If the casualties were Li Shimin himself, it would be fine, and he would have less of a confidant from now on.

But it was Li Chengqian who was hurt, and it was Li Shimin's heart, and it was difficult to protect it......

When Li Jiancheng was worried, his subordinates hurriedly came to ask for a meeting.

Wei Zheng, Wei Ting, and Wang Qi stood on the main hall of Donggong Li, anxious.

"What's the matter with the three Qing families?"

Seeing Li Jiancheng come out, Wei Ting took the lead in stepping forward: "His Royal Highness the Prince, something is not good. ”

"What?"

"In Chang'an City, it is rumored that His Royal Highness King An Lu trampled on his horse and seriously injured the King of Zhongshan County."

"So fast?"

Li Jiancheng had already expected that public opinion might be unfavorable to his son, but he didn't expect that the city would be full of storms in an instant.

For a moment, he first thought about whether it would be the Qin Wangfu deliberately, preemptively occupying public opinion, and pretending to be pitiful to smear the East Palace.

"However, there are also rumors that the sons of Du Ruhui and Cheng Zhijie injured His Royal Highness King Anlu."

Wei Zheng reminded: "I don't know the details, I came to ask to see you, I don't know if His Royal Highness King An Lu is okay?" ”

"Minor injuries, out of the way."

"Your Highness is in the way... It's lucky, but... Cacao...... In this way, I am afraid... I'm afraid also... Hemp... Trouble. ”

Wang Qi stuttered a little, and the intermittent reminder made everyone realize that the situation was not favorable to the East Palace.

If Lee Seung-dao is also seriously injured, both of them are injured, at least there is no problem of public opinion sympathy and bias.

Li Yuan, who feels sorry for his grandson, is estimated to be with the mud, and neither side will be punished, but they will all be related.

As a result, now Li Chengdao is doing well, but Li Chengqian has broken his leg, so naturally it is a different matter.

Whether it is Li Yuan's attitude or public opinion, there will be bias.

Lee Seung-do's mount is the culprit;

At that time, the king of Anlu was indeed on horseback;

Even if it was a surprise, I can't tell now.

Brothers, friends, brothers, brothers

The most insurmountable universal norm of the year.

What will the world think of a royal grandson who tramples on his cousin on a horse?

The crown prince Li Jiancheng can't escape from the charge of not being strict with his son, and he is even suspected of connivance.

In short, there will inevitably be trouble in the East Palace.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you take King An Lu to the Prince's Mansion to visit the King of Zhongshan County and apologize by the way......"

As soon as Wei Ting made a suggestion, he was interrupted by Wang Jue: "No... No way...... That's not... Wait... Recognize Anlu... Wang Zong... Do horses hurt people? ”

"There must be no admit, and there can be no fault in the way."

Li Jiancheng's attitude is very resolute, as a father, he must defend the "eldest son".

"If this is the case, then this matter must be an accident, or His Royal Highness King An Lu is also a victim."

Wei Zheng groaned: "At least Your Majesty must think so, otherwise it will ......"

"What Xuan Cheng said is reasonable."

Li Jiancheng nodded: "Don't hide it from you, I have asked Chengdao, today he was taken by the Yin family, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and he helps to ask for a piece of land." ”

“……”

The faces of the three East Palace officials couldn't help but sink, they had heard of Yin Lu, so there was an element of cunning and robbery in this.

Usually it's nothing, but now it's a rumor, the government and the opposition and even the world are paying attention, and if you don't get it right, someone will make a fuss.

If someone sues an Anlu King and Yin Jiazi for encroaching on the people's land, and the king of Zhongshan County sees injustice and suffers revenge, it will be "lively".

"Your Highness, who is the landlord? And those who are here today, it is better to keep their mouths shut. ”

"I'm afraid it's hard."

Li Jiancheng frowned: "According to Chengdao, the landlord is a young man who has saved Qingque and Lizhi.

The eldest grandson's family and the Du family are familiar with it, and they also partnered to open a winery together, and the foundation stone was laid today......"

All right!

The three of them were speechless again, Li Chengdao was cheated by Yin Lu, and the pit was very miserable.

"If this is the case, the Qin Wangfu may take the opportunity to make trouble, why don't you preemptively control that young man ...... earlier"

"Will the Qin Wangfu agree?"

"It's just right not to agree, if there is another obstruction or rescue, we can take advantage of the situation to fight back."

"Fight back?"

"A King of Qin who did not hesitate to let his son break his leg and make a bitter trick...... What will Your Majesty think? ”

Wei Ting sneered, back then, Tiance Mansion concocted the Yang Wengan incident and tired him of demoting his official, and he has always remembered this hatred!

"Well, it's just that I have to wronged the country boy."

Wei Zheng was a little unbearable, after all, innocent people were involved.

"Xuancheng doesn't want the kindness of a woman, that young man has a close relationship with the Qin Mansion, and he is not wronged."

Wei Ting smiled: "Leave the affairs of Chengnan to me, and I will blame Chang'an County to handle it." ”

Li Yuanji, who had been silent, interrupted: "No... Don't come forward in the East Palace in this matter, let the people in my house go.

The two nephews were injured, he was the initiator, the culprit, and it is reasonable for this king's uncle to be angry and ask for the guilt. ”

Wei Zheng agreed: "Miaozai, His Royal Highness the King of Qi is indeed the most appropriate, even if the Qin Wangfu does not agree, there is nothing to do." ”

Li Yuanji sneered: "If the two emperors and grandsons are injured, the father and emperor will inevitably be angry, and it will inevitably anger some people, as for which ones......

Yin Lu caused trouble, Yin Arat and Concubine De can't stand idly by, right? ”
